Mr.. Thos. F. HUMPHREYS, jr.,
of Utica, New York, who has been
spending several months with his
father in this city. died on Monday
night at 1890 o'clock. Mr..
Humphries has been in failing
health for some time, and thinking
a change of climate would be
beneficial, he came to this city
last December, but has been con-
fined to his bed most Of the time
since his arrival, and for the last
few weeks has been gradually
sinking. He was sculptor, and
while at work several years ago a
piece of marble flew into one of his
eyes, which destroyed the sight
and rendered surgical operation
necessary. The operation was
such severe shock to his nervous
system that he never recovered.
He leaves a widow but no children.
He was buried with the honors
of Odd Fellowship on Thursday
evening last.

FRANKFORT. FEBRUARY 20, 1871

As time draws on apace the alb
solute necessity for our city and
county to do something defmte
and worthy Of consideration in re-
gard to the railroad from this city
to Georgetown, is made more and
more apparent.
While we are moving along
sIuggishly and with little energy
in the matter, the friends Of other
routes and roads are up and at
work, as busy as bees.
The Versailles and Midway road
has succeeded in getting a sub.
scription from Scott county; the
surveys have been made, and
President Grady will have his
road built and the cars running
through to Georgetown before we
get through resolving. talking and
doing nothing.
This is an age Of push. energy
and dash. 1t will not do to say
"I'm in favor of the road, but
l don't want anything done until
we can be perfectly sure Of the
grou' d we are going over, and
that the road will not be mere
SWITCH" &c.
Let us take hold of this PROPOSE
ton with vim and determination
that will snatch success from the
very verge Of defeat and make the
road what it ought to be and must
be.
Already. towns that are envious
of us and jealous of our position,
are chuckling and laughing in their
sleeves at our slow-going move
ments in this matter.
Awake! arouse fellow citizens,
before it is too late! !!

The latest sensation in higher
circles in this city is the pugilistic
mill between two Of our first so.
cie,y young men on Tuesday last.
1t appears that a grudge had ex-
listed between them for some time,
owing to remarks made bs one of
them, at which the other took
umbrage. 1t was agreed that
they should each choose a friend,
and, at some suitable place, fight
the matter out under the Marquis
Of Queensburry rules.
Accordingly they chose their
friends and repaired to the
country, near the residences Of MIR.
w. L. Collins and Mr.. Polk
Conway. The ground was chosen
and they went at their work with
varying fortunes until the seventh
round when one of the gents
could not come to the scratch for
the eighth round. Time was called.
The parties shook hands and re-
turned to the city with Their
"honah" satisfied. A few ugly
bruises, and the guying Of their
friends is all there remains to tes-
tify.

A special gran d jury was en-
paneled. on Tuesday last, by
Judge Montfort, to investigate the
row in "Craw,' in which John l..
I'ahy was wounded, on Monday
night.
We hope that this jury will in
indict all the disorderly houses in
that sweet scented region. If
former grand juries had listened to
the appeals made to them, many
crimes would have been avoided,
and much suffering and demorali-
cation prevented among the young
men Of this city.

The COlOred State Normal
School.

1t will be remembered by our
readers that. some time since, the
Commissioners to locate the Col
ored State Normal School met
here and accepted the proposition
made by this city to locate the
School on the Fort Hill.
1t appears that. at the time the
negotiations were pending, the
colored people agreed to build
the road to the proposed location.
In making the surveys and esti-
mates for the same, it was discov-
cred that the road would cost more
than double the amount at first
supposed. The title to the prop
erty was also discovered to be in
such shape that clear title could
not be obtained.
The City Council then deter
mined to obtain other grounds for
the location Of the school. Ac-
cordingly arrangements were made
for the, purchase OF other pr operty.
The Commissioners met here,
OH Saturday last. and the formal
tender was made of twenty-threc
acres of ground near the residence
Of Col. John L. Scott, on the
Georgetown pike. at the city
limits. The offer was accepted,
and the proper legal documents
will be delivered to the Commits
ioners on Saturday next.
The Commissioners will adver-
tise for bids to construct the proper
buildings next week. SO that the
work may commence as soon as
the weather will permit.
We trust that the friends will see
the wisdom of the action of the
Council in this matter. The new

There is but one objection to
the new Post Office, and that is,
there is no outside box in which
to drop letters after the office is
closed at night and before it is
opened in the morning. The
street boxes will remedy this mat
ter, however, when they are put
up.
